We are blinded

at the tree top
playing with the
holy fruit
of our ascetic .

It’s a satire! I look at it in different planes…prudent saint never bothers about the naughty monkey who has been given license by the almighty to enjoy, the holy man only smiles at the smartness of monkey and enjoys….here the clever monkey enjoys his naughtiness and the holy man enjoys his wisdom through love and compassion…only the onlookers are affected…! A beautiful satire aptly penned Binay, enjoyed!
